Granbury ISD superintendent urges parents to support students during STAR testing season
Summary
Courtney Murawski, superintendent of Granbury ISD, reminded families that STAR testing season is underway and said results affect graduation requirements, required student interventions and campus and district ratings while urging parents to encourage student confidence.
Courtney Murawski, superintendent of Granbury ISD, reminded parents that STAR testing season is under way and outlined how the results are used by the district and state to make decisions about graduation requirements, interventions and school ratings. "These are important tests, where students can show what they've known and be confident about what they've done all year learning in their classrooms," Murawski said.
Murawski told families to send reminders from home as students prepare for the exams and emphasized the district values students beyond test results. "In the end, we know that your child is worth more than a test score," she said. She noted the tests inform required interventions for some students and contribute to campus and district ratings reported to the state.
No formal actions or votes were recorded during this announcement; the remarks were a superintendent communication to families about the testing period.
